As long as you're not bothering any concurrent RMs' work, I think it's fine to experiment
live :)

> We have a quite a few active branches now, which makes backporting a full time job.
> I was thinking about whether we can get hadoopqa to test the patches specific to branches
with the code from that branch. I think we can grab the branch name from the patch file name
and check out that branch prior to running the tests. I have a patch, but not sure whether
it will work. Let me experiment a bit. If hadoopqa gets broken, it is probably this issue.
